Amelia Chen Email & Phone Number

I am a creative, hardworking and motivated student who is always looking for ways to advance my learning. As a student with a passion for cognitive psychology and psychological science, I am always seeking opportunities to further my knowledge and understanding of my topic of interest. My genuine interest in how the brain works and develops has allowed me to focus on establishing skills that may advance my learning and future career. Skills such as problem-solving, organization and being intuitive, are foundational skills in psychology and have also contributed to my proficiency in school. In order to further my learning I have joined the Medical Pathology club, which discusses medical aspects that also affect cognitive psychology and it has helped me to learn more in-depth topics surrounding my interests. After having both volunteered and worked as a bike instructor at PedalHeads, I have been able to hone my communication, problem-solving skills and creativity, when navigating leadership with young children. I have had to be a quick thinker and innovator to keep the campers interested and ready to learn. Working with children has allowed me to become more patient and empathetic, which I have been able to transfer to field hockey as well. I have played field hockey since I was 8 years old, and have continued to the Varsity team at Crofton House School. Similarly to PedalHeads, being a part of the team has aided me in developing leadership and communication skills as well as my fondness for the sport. In school, I am also a part of the Business Club and the Create for a Cause Club. Both clubs allow me to explore innovation and creativity through entrepreneurship. Creating items for those in need with Create for a Cause has really been a big motivational factor in my creative journey through textiles and design.
